| I've been watching them lately. Looked at a '51 a couple months ago. The market is terrible for them and that's why they're not moving. That car would probably go for about $2,500 in this market. | |

| I don't even think it's worth $2,500 right now but I don't know the values of these. I do know that no one is buying projects right now | |

| True that, but its still a neat old Pontiac. The oldest one i've seen in real life is a 57. Man parts for this thing have to be next to impossible to find tho haha | |

| Yep, if you're going back that old and want to fully restore it you probably need some deep pockets. OR you could just build a gasser out of it | |

| Also, down 123 right outside of San Marcos, heading towards seguin there is a 1960 Chevy 4 door sedan at an auto shop. It's been there a while. You might want to check out if it's for sale. There's also a 1960 Chevy 4 door sedan sitting at a shop right off 281 in spring branch. That car has been there for at least 3-4 years. And there's a white 1960 chevy 4 door sedan, rebuilt 283, 3 speed stick, looks super solid for sale not too far from my parents house in Canyon Lake. The dude told me to make him an offer. It would be a great car to drive while you restore it...and put a 4 speed in it. He said he replaced the torsion bars, I think he meant the steering. | |

| I know where there's a 1960 Biscayne 2 door business coupe (no back seat!) south of Austin.
As I was saying to you Robert when we went junkyarding, the '60 Chevies are just my least favorite. Too bland. | |

| Yeah they are, but they seem to be easy to come by. I'd say the '60 chevy is my least favorite of all the 59/60 Gms also. I don't care for the 59 chevies in the flat top or the 59/60 olds in the flat top. But the sedans look damn good, especially the 2 door sedans. Oh yeah, as much as I love the 59 buicks, the 60s don't really do it for me | |
